Built-in capabilities (10)
Choose the arming mode: "stay" (arms perimeter sensors like doors and windows but ignores interior motion detectors, ideal when occupants are home) or "away" (arms all sensors including interior motion, ideal when the property is empty). After arming, verify the new state with get_security_status. Arm the Honeywell Home security system
Use this when returning home or when authorized personnel need access. After disarming, verify the new state with get_security_status. Disarm the Honeywell Home security system
Returns data such as PM2.5 particulate levels, VOC (volatile organic compounds) index, CO2 concentration, humidity, and overall air quality rating. Use this to assess whether ventilation or air purification is needed. Get air quality readings from a Honeywell Home device
The returned data includes an image URL or base64-encoded snapshot. This is useful for a quick visual check of a room or area without streaming live video. Provide the camera device_id from get_devices. Capture a snapshot image from a Honeywell Home camera
Use the device_id obtained from get_devices. Useful for quickly verifying that a security camera is active and functioning before reviewing footage. Get the status of a Honeywell Home camera
Provide a locationId obtained from the get_locations tool. If no locationId is supplied, returns all devices across all locations. Useful for inventorying connected hardware. List all devices at a Honeywell Home location
) associated with the authenticated Honeywell Home account. Each location contains metadata such as name, address, timezone, and the list of devices registered at that address. Use this tool first to discover location IDs before querying devices or security systems. List all registered Honeywell Home locations
Returns whether the system is armed (stay or away mode), disarmed, or in alarm, along with the status of connected sensors (doors, windows, motion detectors). Provide a location_id from get_locations. Get the current status of the Honeywell Home security system
Use this to check what temperature the thermostat is targeting and whether the HVAC system is actively running. Get detailed thermostat readings and configuration
You can adjust the heat setpoint (minimum temperature), the cool setpoint (maximum temperature), or switch the operating mode (heat, cool, auto, off). Only send the parameters you want to change. After modifying setpoints, verify the change with get_thermostat_data. Use this to help users regulate heating and cooling remotely. Adjust the temperature setpoint on a Honeywell thermostat

Frequently asked questions
How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?
When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.
What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?
Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.
Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?
Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.
Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?
Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.
Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?
Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
Server not appearing after restart
Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).
Authentication error
Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.
Tools not showing in chat
Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
